Cationic sugarcane bagasse hemicellulose derivatives with a relatively low degree of substitution (0.01-0.54) containing quaternary ammonium groups were prepared by etherification with 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride or preferably with 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride using sodium hydroxide as a catalyst in aqueous solution. The extent of etherification was measured by yield percentage and degree of substitution (DS). The DS values of the products could be controlled by adjusting the molar ratio of etherifying agent to anhydroxylose units in hemicelluloses and the molar ratio of sodium hydroxide to etherifying reagent. In comparison, the etherified hemicellulose preparations were characterized by both degradative methods such as thermal analysis, and non-degradative techniques such as gel permeation chromatography (GPC), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. It was found that a significant degradation of the hemicellulose polymers occurred during etherification under the alkaline conditions used. The thermal stability of the etherified hemicelluloses was lower than that of the unmodified hemicellulose polymers.
